You need to provide one more piece of the puzzle to determine what pixel
dimensions to render for a 300dpi image. For instance if the dimensions you
were after were 4"x5" you would render to (4×300) x (5×300) or 1200×1500. To
set the dpi of an image to exactly 300dpi you will need to bring the image into
a paint program and change it there. When you bring in a 3ds image into a
paint program you may get a default of 96dpi or 1dpi or something else equally
improbable. If you change it to 300dpi the image itself will remain unchanged
but when printed it will respect the new resolution. So, you can make any
image you wish 300dpi. Can I assume you are about to send an image out to
print?
